Other obviously ours.

Why because it doesn't suck hot air at the temp of oh way 150-160* F and doesn't heatsoak like the stock plastic intake does.

HKS is better than K&N, but I assume A'PEX is the best.

If you have read that article comparing filters on a supra you will know that it is like this 1) APEXi 2) K&N 5)HKS lol

The foam element in the hks intakes people say starts to fall apart and flow into the intake. That would not be good for the engine or filtering.
